The Person Centred Care, Health Systems and Public Health Thematic Group brings together the expertise currently housed in Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care (EPOC), Cochrane Consumers and Communication (CCC) and Cochrane Public Health (CPH). Combining the expertise and networks of these three Cochrane review groups provides a sound base to generate more integrated evidence that considers health systems governance, financing and delivery arrangements, and population-level public health interventions, and how health systems and public health can be more person-centred.
